Wondering if this is possible I would like to have mine running a FM radio for work
This has been asked a few times already and the answer is not yet. Untill google gives us a radio that supports the fm transceiver there's no way we can get to it. Maybe when the desire is finally out we can get it from it.
Hey guys,
I'm interested in buying Sygic GPS nav (their latest nav app). But not sure whether it'll work perfectly on LG Optimus 2x. I tried their prev version (2.1.13) on O2x (stock rom) and it worked okay for first time and then reboot issue. Their current version (3.x) looks interesting.
Anyone has ever installed and is it okay? Now my O2x has been upgraded to v10b, base 405, rooted.
thanks
i have sygic and it wrks great i really like it, also the download maps feature is great..
i was in france last week and forgot to get that map on my phone but they had free wifi hotspots @ gas stations which allowed me to download a map straight of their servers
all in all im verry content with it.
It is DEFINITIVELY ok, I kinda love it and worked out pretty well so far!
hmm.. just bought Sygic. When it's working it's good. But after I close the app, my phone became unstable. In fact, i thought because it was conflicting with Car Home. But freezing Car Home or not doesn't change anything. It's still crashed. Especially when i use the Sygic while charging it in my car. Also, when i fiddle around the settings. Have they made Sygic compatible with Tegra? Mine is 405 baseband and V10b firmware. Any idea what can make it more stable?
thanks
absolutely to suggest
I've got the Sygic Aura 3.0 and it works perfectly!
do any of you have your LG use modified ROM or stock ROM? Mine is rooted but still stock ROM.
Mine is no root, stock at the moment.
Has anyone contacted LG about the FM radio? Why wasn't it in the update? Are they just not going to turn it on for us? Don't understand that at all. Why build a phone and then limit what it can do? I'm thinking that we might get ICS update with it enabled? That is the only thing I can think of that makes any sense.
Firstly, it's LG we're talking about.
Second, if I'm wrong, then I must be on crack, but I don't think they ever advertised it to use FM Radio.
Plus, you have to use the Bluetooth for FM Radio, which in turn, isn't adequate for a FM receiver. Plus, think about it. If they DID add it, how many users would be complaining that they have to use bluetooth for radio?
Ice Cream Sandwich? Yeah. I wish. LG will be making CRAPPY versions of ICS and they'll be encrypting their files.
I'm not going to lie. I ONLY got the phone for the 3D. That's about it.
My only suggestion is to be like straying sheep and wander away from LG.
You dont have to use the bluetooth on GB. It has an FM reciever in it, its just not turned on? I got the phone for a penny thats why I have it. I knew I wouldent use the 3d. Im not a gamer; It is cool for about an hr. then I need my phone to do real work. I am pleased though, very nice phone for a penny. If I was gona drop some cash i'd get the note.
The FM radio doesn't operate over Bluetooth. It just shares a radio with bluetooth. This is why you need to turn bluetooth on, it activates the fm radio reciever. This is confirmed by the fact that the headset doubles as the FM antenna.
We already know the phone is capable. Its just a matter of making it work.

Then I must have been on crack.
I must be muddling up my phones. -.-
So we all know it has an FM receiver. I'm just pissed because lg did not enable it. I guess it could of had bugs so they just decided to scrap it. I love my Google play music, but like to hear the local radio to. Not a big deal, but if your like me, then you want your phone to do all it can even if you don't use it for such.
i just tested CM7 a few days ago... they have FM Radio on the rom and it works... y Lestat doesnt??
not LG's fault, but ATT
1. the phone does have an FM receiver.
2. the FM radio IS enabled, you only need to install the LG FM radio program to use it.
3. In ATT version of the software, they (ATT) stripped the FM receiver software away, not LG.
4. the LG FM radio package from the Optimus3D works perfectly in the Thrill, since it's exactly the same hardware, but you need to install 2 other applications (the fm radio provider and the fm service)
5. if you're using a froyo based rom, you will have to start bluetooth for the fm radio to work.
6. if you're using a GB based rom, you don't have to start bluetooth for the fm radio to work.
7. Attached the 3 apks that you need to install. After installing them, pls reboot before using them.
We all have the same apk's I didnt get them to work on v20p. (should of included that.) It works on most custom roms with old basebands. I will try your files. Mine might be wrong.
It just force closes on v20p.

Definitely blame AT&T for that.
They changed kernel settings.
I emailed lg 3 days ago. I have yet to hear back. Ill email att tonight. I told them it maks them look bad when you guys can get this to work b4 them. No names of corse.
Fm works for me I am using AcidHazard ROM 3.5 with stock 20P ATT kernel
you're right
I have used so many firmwares that I didn't remember which one I was using.
fm radio apk works fine in 21d (european) and 20a (brazil).
Besides that, both don't have all the att bloatware, so the phone works better and drains a lot less battery.
I didn't have problems with my country's 3G bands (we use 850 and 2100 here, and both seemed to work fine in those firmwares, although I didn't find documentation about that)
If I had to choose, the brazilian 20a seemed smoother, and with overall better reception.

It is LG G2. D800. And 4.4.2. D80020c, rooted.
Any ideas ?
Hi everyone
I need some suggestions on custom roms
My mum has been using the gingerbread stock samsung rom with semaphore kernel
But the problem is my mom started to complaint about the responsiveness
She founds it's abit too laggy even in normal usage
Normally, i would just find some on the first page of the "development section" , and try my luck from there.
Here it comes the tricky part because the most important feature for her is the "FM radio", she always use it to listen the local (Hong Kong) stations everyday.
I wish to have some suggestions, even if it's not the latest cm10
Anything with a "good" FM radio will be just fine!!
Thx everyone
Ask in particular rom dev thread, or use slim bean

:highfive:
Could you provide settings for FM radio - cuz set on 'auto' hangs the application on my rom :<
FM Radio
Some said that Spirit FM breaks our speaker so I used Tune In Radio that requires Internet Connection
Thread closed as its a best ROM thread.
I have a custom ROM on my phone but want to be able to listen to FM radio. Are there any apps in the Play Store that can use the FM radio feature of the phone? Everything I've seen is online streaming radio.
Much thanks!
What ROM are you on? It's my understanding that FM radio is on all Moto G 2014's.
Hi, don't know if you are still looking but this worked for me in Nougat, I'm guessing it works with MM too. Hopes it works for you
